NOTE The CONV dial is disabled in 2D LL recording mode 54 What is convergence point adjustment i What is parallax A human s stereoscopic viewing takes advantage of the brain s ability to process information from the left and right eyes of two images seen from their respective perspectives The misalignment of the two images is called binocular parallax Mainly binocular parallax is used by 3D equipment to create the feeling of stereoscopic images When shooting the images from the left and right lenses are misaligned because of the difference in the positions of the lenses as well as in the directions of the optical axes This misalignment called parallax changes according to the distance of the subject being shot illustration at right If parallax is excessive it is difficult to fuse the two images within the brain This may produce a double image create a feeling of strangeness etc causing eyestrain Limiting the parallax appropriately during shooting is important for comfortable 3D viewing BAre there guidelines for appropriate parallax There are two guidelines for parallax Parallax 3 96 or less the effective width of the screen It is usually said that a parallactic angle within 1 degree is preferable for comfortable 3D viewing The parallactic angle here means the difference between the angle of convergence when a viewer watches a point on the screen and the angle when he or she watches an o
